Hellbound Taxi

Bounty hunter Steve is forced to come out of retirement when his former employers come calling, asking him to track down and dispose of a dangerous fugitive: a demon in human form, recently escaped from Hell. It would be an impossible mission, but Steve has one major advantage: his souped-up 1950s taxi cab is itself possessed by an infernal being, and it's hungry for the souls of the sinful.

Director Statement

Through a fortuitous chain of events I was introduced to Steve "Doc" Holliday, his incredible Docville Wild West Film Set, and his fearsome Taxi. I sensed low-hanging cinematic fruit. From the beginning, my question was: "What would completely rock my world if I were switching TV channels as an 8-year-old while Mom and Dad were out of the room?" The answer came very organically, given these powerful ingredients.
